Howdy Rosemontians!
Well, it’s that time of year again when the kiddos are back in school, summer vacations are over, and we are getting ready for fall. Definitely felt like a very short summer, especially with all of the water restrictions. But life could be much worse, so I hope everyone was able to take advantage of the (relatively) smoke-free weather.
To kick off the new school year, all Rosemontians are invited to our annual Start Up BBQ at the hall on Saturday, September 14 from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. We will have some burgers on the BBQ, music, games for the kids and the chance to reconnect with old friends and meet some new faces. This is a free event for those that live in Rosemont with a free membership (see details below). So, whether you are new to the community or have lived here for many years, whether you rent or you own, we invite you to join us! All that we ask is that you RSVP at RosemontYYC.com/2024BBQ to help us plan numbers accordingly.
It’s that time of the year to renew your Membership or sign up if you haven’t before. Once again, we are offering free 2024-2025 memberships for all residents in Rosemont. Visit RosemontYYC.com/Membership to sign up. You get access to our great events (like the free BBQ on September 14) and 10% off hall rentals. It is a win-win, so sign up today!
With the start of the new year, we’re looking for new ideas and ways to connect our community. If you have a great idea and would like our support to make it happen, contact us. If you have attended an event such as our paint night, movie night, BBQ or Christmas Market, you have seen an idea from a resident come to life. We are only as strong as our community spirit. Please email us with ideas and questions at [email protected].
We will be having our next casino fundraising event on January 23 to 24 at Elbow River Casino. Please save these dates and we will send sign up information in the next couple of months.
Be sure to check out the many programs around the city starting up in September. Our friends at LDK Foundations (who rent our hall) have children’s karate (5+) on Wednesday evenings from 6:00 to 7:00 pm starting on September 10. Visit LDKFoundation.com for more information.
As always, keep looking after your family, friends, neighbours, and yourselves.
